ASICShas been dipping into the world of skate recently, with the introduction of itsASICS Skateboardingdivision just two years ago. Models like theGEL-FLEXKEEhave aided in this movement, as collaborators such as Kiko Kostadinov's OTTO958 have put their own spin on the silhouette. Now, it's time for one of the new faces of the brand to step to center stage.
Skate legendGino Iannuccijoined forces with ASICS Skateboarding in 2023 and is now aiding the brand in launching theLeggerezza FB. The model, whichCOMME des GARCONS HOMME DEUXquietly customized earlier this year, reinterprets ASICS' Injector Arrezzo I, a football cleat from 1989. This is reflected in the shoe's stitched toebox and retro-inspired upper. Iannucci's two takes on the shoe are equipped with durable, double stitched leather uppers that combine with a padded tongue and breathable mesh. Subtle nods to Iannucci's love for ice hockey are delivered with the waxed laces, side panels, and the unique collector's shoe box. Circling back to the shoes themselves, the first pair combines navy with white while the second favors a crisp white with gold accents.
For those looking to pick up Gino Iannucci's two takes on the ASICS Leggerezza FB, the sneakers are set to drop on August 29 via select skate shops at a price of $105 USD each. From there, a broader launch and more colorways of the model are scheduled to drop in September, so stay tuned for more updates.
